Nawww. I got home grown tomatoes from a friend.
To the downvoter. It's cool. It's my parents wedding anniversary today. I promise my loved one surprises me every other day.
Aw, and they're so beautiful too! Like you!
Hmm... I should get my wife some flowers. Not today - any day but today.
But, it's been too long since I bought her any.
Oooo
The face of "turn the fucking music down you woke me up!"
I have 2 offers!!!! Hoping number 3 comes through but probably not.
That's ok though!
Our daughter, our only child, cherished baby girl is out on a date. Don't worry, she's keeping us up to date. Plus I have life 360. I know exactly where she is.๐ฅบ
aww ๐ฅน
If she (you) need assistance, let us know
Happy to rock up with islander uncles when needed.
Thanks. This kid screams nerd (I've seen pix) drives a suburu, is into D n D and looks after old people. OMG. I can easily scare him with a baseball bat.
Good to know.
In any case, if you need a bunch of 100kg+ gospel singing bros to show up let us know.
Otherwise, we can protect him too.
update: I may have written BAG OF DICKS on the side of the sausage bags
pouch of penises
sack of schlongs
container of cocks
Package of pizzles
Least you can tell someone to go eat a bag of dicks now.
that's the plan!
Heading back to melbs today.
Haven't been back since xmas. Gonna be a shock going through the CBD. Always blows my mind down here you only see a few people daily (usually on the foreshore / beach / shops) but people go out of their way to interact. Had more convos with randos down here in the last month than I have in the last 2 years in melbs.
I say bring back the rando convo.
No thanks. I always get stuck with the itchy weirdo rando.
Yup same. For whatever reason the tweakers think I have a "friendly face" ๐คฆ๐ผโโ๏ธ๐คฆ๐ผโโ๏ธ๐คฆ๐ผโโ๏ธ I hate that shit so much.
Yeah, it's always the oldies, which I don't mind or the desperates.
TAFE done for the day, last two classes were chill so no stress.
It was a toss up between goon and coffee ~~so I combined them together~~ so I chose coffee
Iโm off to the fish and chip shop.
Would anyone like a dimmy? Potato cake? Eldritch tentacled god in batter?
On this blessed day behold a picture of uranus
Every time I see uranus my spirit is lifted
Happy Laneway day everyone! Time for one too many beers and eating far too much food. And there may be music on in the background.
Ok so still waiting on Toshiba, software company called and I'm calling back.
And I've emailed the 3rd place to get an answer.
The 3rd place is the one I really want, but I don't think I'm getting it.
getting the f outta dodge should be the top priority. And whatever way that takes without having to whore yourself out or sell bags sounds a shit load better than when you are now tbh.
10000000%
Iโm feeling for the people who went Laneway, they would be getting soaked right now.
I'm getting slaughtered at gin rummy today. Please send good luck wishes.
just picked up 6kg of angus sausages from the local butcher for the weekend party.
There were crowds. Horrified stares. Three people decided to come back later. They just kept coming. Sausage on sausage on sausage.
I'm drinking piรฑa coladas
While watching exposรฉs
Of speedrunning cheaters
Breaking rules of the games
And it's narrated by an Aussie
But from Queensland they are
But they're actually quite funny
So I'll forgive that faux pas
Stuff cooking. I hear some fish & chips calling my name.
I small fisherman's basket later ... damn it just hits the spot tonight.
Still no joy convincing the mrs on the camper trailer/poptop/campervan/whatever you want to call it. She wants to think about it more. her primary concern is we wont use it enough, but its real hard to convince her shes wrong when the campervan would make it all so much easier to actually do it more frequently. chicken and egg. We dont do it often cause its hard so we dont wanna spend money to make it easier.
Found a couple worth checking out. But the flipside is I found tons of places I want to go assuming we get one.
Nice drop of rain. The garden needs it.
I'm so thankful for the cooler conditions for the next week. I've got shit to do and it helps immensely.
Cheers little cherubs โค๏ธ๐บ

Iโm at work and now people are looking at me funny
Alright, I'm home. I'm going to stretch out the anticipation and murder the tower of dishes, vacuum, and shower before I lose several hours to the show of the season. I suppose this is not dissimilar to the concept of "edging"
E: I have watched it. I suppose, in line with the theme above...
Severence s2e5 mild spoiler
... I feel a bit blue-balled. Way to end it there again!!
I freaking clapped and cheered when that elevator first opened though. THAT'S OUR GIRL
Home in record time and all settled now, let the weekend begin.
Dodged school traffic, home in 17 mins, could have been down to 15 if people wouldnโt make right turns at super busy roads.
